Inspiring The Future. Appendices Go Canucks Go! Lesson 4 | Suggested Grades: 6-8 Appendix 1.0 Jim Robson: Sports Broadcaster To many British Columbians, Jim Robson is the voice of hockey. Over the course of his 47 year broadcasting career, Robson called the action for more than 2,000 NHL games on radio and television. He broadcast 4 Stanley Cup Finals and 5 NHL All-Star Games for Hockey Night in Canada, but is remembered best for his 24 years broadcasting Canucks games on radio for CKNW. When the Canucks jumped to the NHL, he was there for the very first game on October 9, 1970 doing play-by-play for the HNIC television broadcast. His trademark line used to open every broadcast: “Good eve- ning hockey fans and welcome to this National Hockey League game...”. It became nearly as well-known as his regular nod to those listening at home: “...at this time it is my pleasure to welcome to the broadcast all the shut-ins, the pensioners, the blind, and all of those people who can’t get out to watch hockey games.” Robson’s career has been honoured numerous times including induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1992 and the BC Sports Hall of Fame in 2000, Youth EDUCATION PROGRAMS Youth EDUCATION PROGRAMS Youth EDUCATION PROGRAMS Proudly supported by Youth EDUCATION PROGRAMS Honouring The Past.

Lesson 4 | Suggested Grades: 6-8 Appendix 1.1 Tom Larscheid “Bingo, Bango, Bongo they call him Roberto Luongo!” “They look like a bunch of Keystone Cops!” “There’s a freight train on the loose!” “Shake it like a Polaroid picture!” “Oh how Swede it is!” – commenting on the Sedin brothers “Don’t you just love it?” “Move over Stan Smyl, you have some company baby!” - reaction after Trevor Linden ties a record held by the previous Canuck captain Stan Smyl “Call the cops! Another robbery! Wait till you see this one folks they’ll play it on the highlight taps on the news tonight!” Jim Robson “He’ll play. You bet he’ll play. He’ll play on crutches. And he’ll play, on Tuesday night, at Madison Square Gar- den.” – Jim Robson on Trevor Linden’s determination even after breaking his nose a second time during the 1994 Stanley Cup Playoffs) “Linden carries the puck into the Toronto zone, turning off the left boards, back at the line to Babych, long shot, Potvin had trouble with it! Adams shoots scores! GREG ADAMS! GREG ADAMS! GREG ADAMS! ADAMS GETS THE WINNER 14 SECONDS INTO THE SECOND OVERTIME! THE VANCOUVER CANUCKS ARE GOING TO THE STANLEY CUP FINALS!” “A special hello to hospital patients and shut-ins, the pensioners, the blind, all the people who don’t get out to games but enjoy the hockey broadcasts...” – Jim Robson’s standard hello to those unable to attend games live given every game he broadcast.
